Ohio Turnpike officials warn of email scam

Officials said Monday that emails from the sender "EZPass Info" are likely attempts to steal personal information from some of the 150,000 customers who use the automated E-ZPass system to automatically pay tolls on the northern Ohio thoroughfare.

The email says the customer owes money and asks the receiver to click a link to download an invoice.

Customers with questions about the validity of a message from E-ZPass should call 440-234-2081, ext. 1075.
